The Madman got in on a technicality (and international collusion) and it's eating him up.
He cannot stand the fact that more Americans voted against him than for him and his obsession with explaining away that fact is quite telling.

I have not heard any of the pundits or commentators discussing the fact that I spent FAR LESS MONEY on the win than Hillary on the loss!


Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump · 32m32 minutes ago

I would have done even better in the election, if that is possible, if the winner was based on popular vote - but would campaign differently


Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump · 41m41 minutes ago

Campaigning to win the Electoral College is much more difficult & sophisticated than the popular vote. Hillary focused on the wrong states!

Note to Donald: It was possible to do better in your election. You're officially the biggest losingest winner in US Presidential history. Stuff the "historical landslide" bullshit back up your orange ass where it belongs.


Seems to me that eventually, one of them would realize their best candidate was beaten by the one with this highest of all disapproval ratings.

8. 2.1%!!!!!!!!! That's how much he lost the election.....48.2-46.1

Honestly. This was someone getting elected by losing by almost 2.9 million votes. Every vote doesn't count and just because he got plastered in a few states doesn't mean their votes didn't count.

The Madman got in on a technicality (and international collusion) and it's eating him up.

The EC was designed by the Framers of the Constitution and did exactly what it was designed to do, be an impediment to any Presidential candidate who wrote off large regions and/or segments of the US population. The EC is clearly spelled out in the Constitution, not an arcane and obscure technicality.

The SHREW-CHILL would have learned about the EC in 8th Grade American History, 11th Grade American History, and 12th Grade American Government (or whatever similar scope and sequence IL followed in the 50s and 60s), and again, in excruciating detail, in law school. She chose to ignore it - or presumed she had the votes of several states she lost. The SHREW-CHILL knew the potential consequences, but still chose the path that led to defeat.

Hillary RodHAM Clinton will NEVER be President of the United States!

Ok DUmmies...let's use a golf analogy...

We both have a good drive off the tee on a par 4, we're about 125 yards out for our second shots.  You put a wedge shot BEAUTIFULLY in the air, nice high arc.  It hits the green about 10 feet past the pin and even rolls back 3 feet, leaving you with a 7 foot birdie putt.

I top a sand wedge badly, it skitters across the fairway, bounces off a sprinkler head, hits the pin and drops into the hole.  Really UGLY shot.

I get an eagle, you lose.

As we say in golf, it's not how you got there, where you got is all that matters.

All of this kvetching from the DUmmies is typical Liberal-Progressive-Marxist goal-post moving.

"If only..."
"If only..."
"If only..."

It's pointless.

You're children.

Grow up or move into one of Hillary's 'Joy Camps.'

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Wednesday morning blasted liberals who insist Trump's victory is illegitimate because more Americans voted for Clinton.
'This is football season. A team can have more yards and lose the game. What matters is how many points you put on the board. The Electoral College is the points,' he said on 'Fox & Friends.'

MSM-folk are still browning their panties over the reality that Trump won. Contemplating and acknowledging that The SHREW-CHILL & Crew spent twice as much as did Trump & Crew would not only remind them of that fact, but also drive home the fact that MSM influence in Presidential elections is limited and possibly waning.

Wasn't the final spending total something ridiculous like $1.2B vs. Trump's $66M?  I thought I saw that somewhere....  :shrug:

The numbers I've heard reported were that SHREW & Crew (all supporters, not just her campaign) spent ~$1.2B, Trump & Crew spent about half that, and Trump spent $66M of his own $$.

Technically, shouldn't Hillary be called the "losingest winner in Presidential history"?

I mean she won the popular vote, but she lost the 2008 election to Barry Soetoro, she lost the 2016 election to Trump, she lost the recount to Trump, (he gained more votes), and she lost more votes in the electoral college.
